Good breakfast with fruits and you can have it all day long. Free WiFi, beds are comfortable and the whole place is very clean. Will definitely stay here again, when i... More

We stayed 3 nights at Sleepy Sam's and we had a good time. Sleepy Sam's is located on a not busy side street in a good walking distance to all main signs in Singapore. Sleepy Sam's was clean and we felt very safe. Free good working Internet and a good breakfast includes the price. The dorm had been in good... More

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights at the start of 1 month travelling around SE Asia. Good location, nice wee buzzy (but not noisy) street that's about 20mins lazy walk to Raffles hotel. Sleepy Sams is in the Arabic district and as such has a huge mosque at the end of the road. It is impressive but... More

The mosque looked majestic from the front terrace of the hostel. Easy access by bus to nearest Bugis Junction / Street / MRT Lots of nice place to chill... More

This has been my third time in three years at Sleepy Sams and I used to call it my favourite hostel. This stay (10 days) has unfortunaty changed my mind. While I love the location next to the beautiful mosque, the style of the hostel in an historic building and even the big dorms (basicly there's 30 people sleeping upstairs,... More

The only good thing about this hostel was the free breakfast, served by an incredibly grumpy girl who treats you like you're stupid and never smiles. The 'dorm' which they tell you consists of 4 bunk beds per room actually has 4 in each section of a large room and 16 bunks are crammed together sharing only one sink that... More

I almost cancelled my reservation here after reading some of the other reviews on this site. However, after further research I found lots of positive comments so I decided to give it a go, and I'm glad I did. I arrived after a long flight from the UK and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. I booked a private... More
